Preliminary Test Plans of ATC Concepts for Longer Term Improvement (Helicopter Operations Development Program).

Abstract

Test and simulation planning is documented for longer-term improvements in helicopter ATC concepts, which are classified into the following categories: (1) Offshore Route Structure in the Gulf of Mexico, (2) Secondary Radar, (3) Analysis of Navigation Errors in the Gulf, (4) Offshore Surveillance and Communications to 300 NM Range, (5) Real-Time Reporting of Aircraft-Derived Position, (6) VHF Communications Study in the CONUS, (7) ATC Implications of Alternate Airports for Helicopters, and (8) Wake Vortex Separation.
